This director only makes bad movies

"Director Xu Nan, are you sure you want to shoot according to this script?" Mimi said cautiously: "Can't you make some changes?"

If she didn't change it, she really wouldn't dare to shoot it. If she did, she would definitely be scolded to death.

Xu Nan shook his head: "This script was carefully created by me and will never be changed."

"And I really didn't plagiarize. If you look carefully, our movie looks similar to "Dragonfly Man", but it's actually different."

"First of all, "Dragonfly Man" was bitten by a mutant dragonfly, and our "Spider-Man" was bitten by a mutant spider."

"Then, the protagonist of "Dragonfly Man" is a student from a higher university, and our protagonist is a student from Lanxiang Excavator School."

"Also, in "Dragonfly Man", my uncle died, and our best friend died here. The opponent in "Dragonfly Man" is the chairman of a large consortium, and our villain is a psychopath."

"Actually, the two movies are not the same at all. It's just that "Dragonfly Man" is so famous that it looks similar. In fact, the first one to use this routine was "Super Captain", which was filmed fifty years ago, and "Spider-Man" "He is also following the trend. He will never win against us in court."

"That's right." Mimi agreed lukewarmly, and began to think quickly about the pros and cons.

The new movie from a billionaire director is also a movie with a female protagonist. At first glance, it is definitely the top resource in the industry. If it is released, it will be snapped up by others.

But this is a different story if this movie is a copycat movie.

Even if Xu Nan makes a shoddy movie like "Captain China", Mimi can accept it, but knockoff movies will have a great impact on her reputation.

Xu Nan is shameless, but she wants to be.

Do you want to participate?

Seeing Mimi's tangled look, Xu Nan smiled.

"I know you have concerns, but let me put it here. Our movie does not pose any legal risks."

"It will indeed cause controversy, but I just want to use this controversy to boost the movie's box office."

"Mimi, think about it carefully. If you go to participate in those big productions and look high-end, you will lose money in the end. You are not the unlucky one, and it will also waste your time and energy."

"But our "Spider-Man" is different. The cost of 2.5 million is 100% profitable. The return rate is many times higher than those of those blockbusters. It sounds good when we say it."

"The cost is 2.5 million?" Mimi exclaimed: "That's right, Director Xu, you are a director with a box office of 1 billion, and the cost is 2.5 million. This is too low, and it won't sound good if you say it out loud. ah."

Mimi used to think that what Xu Nan filmed was at best a low-end version of "Dragonfly Man", but now it seems that this is more than a low-end version.

With a cost of 2.5 million, how can it be called a low-end version? This is simply a beggar's version, or the beggar's version of the African black uncle.

A great director with a box office of 1 billion shouldn't be a little bit pursuing.

With your record, if you just go out and shout, a lot of people will rush to invest, so why are you so stingy?

Mimi's eyebrows furrowed into a Sichuan shape.

The cost is actually so low.

Speechless.

Xu Nan patiently explained: "Mimi. You don't have to worry about cost. I have rich experience in this area."

"The cost of "A Riverside Pictures on a Qingming Festival" was 200,000 yuan, but the box office was 130 million yuan. The cost of "Captain China" was 1 million, and the box office was 1 billion 30 million yuan. The network broadcast rights set a domestic record, reaching Two hundred million.”

"Two and a half million dollars is definitely enough to make "Spider-Man". In fact, half a million of it is your salary. If you don't want the salary and instead receive box office dividends, we can still reduce the cost to two million." .”

"I predict that the box office of this movie will definitely not be less than 200 million. Think about it, the box office of the movie with a heroine that you starred in is a hundred times the cost. It sounds great to say it, and you are the one who starred in it. You deserve the credit." It belongs to you alone.”

Mimi hesitated.

In fact, Xu Nan is right, there is absolutely no way this movie will lose money.

Moreover, this is a movie with a heroine, and she plays the protagonist. If it succeeds, no one can take away her credit.

Movies with big female protagonists are 100% profitable. If this spreads to the industry, female stars will definitely succumb.

But why should we borrow from others? It would be great if it were original.

So confused.

Xu Nan frowned.

I've told you everything about this Mimi, but you still don't agree.

Isn't it true that a director with a box office of over 1 billion is so hopeless now?

Although you have a thin waist and long legs, and although you are fierce, it does not mean that you are irreplaceable.

This movie doesn’t have to be for you.

Judging from Mimi's hesitant look, persuasion alone is useless. It seems that some strong medicine must be administered.

"Ahem." Xu Nan coughed.

"Mimi, I know this is a difficult decision for you."

"Well, you go back and think about it carefully."

Mimi breathed a sigh of relief.

This is indeed a difficult decision, but it is better to think about it carefully and carefully consider the pros and cons before making a decision.

Xu Nan took out his mobile phone.

"As for me, I can also examine other candidates."

"The implementation was actually quite good, and I happened to have her phone number."

Mimi suddenly became alert and asked: "Which one is Shi Shi?"

Xu Nan smiled and said, "That's the Shi Shi who acted with you in "The Legend of Sword and Chivalry"."

"Some time ago, my movie box office exceeded 1 billion, and she even sent me a congratulatory text message."

"At that time, she also asked me if I had any roles suitable for her. If I make a movie next time, I must tell her. Even if there is no schedule, she will squeeze it out."

"I remember that you two had a very good relationship and often showed off your friendship as besties on the screen."

Mimi couldn't help but laugh.

My bestie is a hammer.

Who wants to have feelings for her?

I didn't expect that this vixen was so thoughtful and knew how to send text messages.

shameless.

Xu Nan continued: "It's really rare that Shi Shi is so famous and has such a good attitude."

"It just so happens that she can also play the role of Spider-Man, and many top female stars in the entertainment industry can play it."

"Actually, I considered her at first, but you called me every day at that time, so I thought about letting you take a look."

"Now I think that for a big deal like the lead role in a movie, it's better to have an open casting call."

"Of course, Mimi, I'm not saying you can't act. The main thing is that this movie is very important to our company, and I have to choose the person who is most suitable to be the protagonist."

"Furthermore, this movie is a copycat movie and can easily cause controversy. It's better not to affect your reputation."

"It goes without saying." Mimi said decisively: "I acted in "Spider-Man"."
